Russ Wilcox has been sacked as manager of Scunthorpe United.
The Sky Bet League One side have lost six of their last seven matches in all competitions, culminating in a 2-1 home defeat to Notts County in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on Tuesday night.
Wilcox, who took over last December following a spell as caretaker boss, led the Iron to promotion last season having finished runners-up to Chesterfield in League Two.
He also enjoyed a record-breaking 28-game unbeaten run for a manager's first spell in charge, surpassing a feat set 125 years ago.
